Newbie question: Where to trade in DVDs?

I have a few hundred of standard DVDs that I want to unload before I move to a new apartment where I don't have enough space for all of them. I've tried FYE and Blockbuster but they can only take up to 20 items per person per day. Is there any other stores also have similar DVD trade-in program and can take more DVDs at a time?

Sorry if this question sounds silly. I never did DVD trade-ins before. Any info is appreciated.

Secondspin.com

won't be instant credit and will take some time to pack and ship, but they give better prices then anywhere else on a lot of titles.

I don't know, maybe new policy? Last time when I reached the 20 limit, the register beeped and the manager told me that she could not take any more. I'm in NY.

Thanks, that's helpful. So they only reimburse for shipping on up to 25 items. Do you always do less than 25 items at a time? I don't know how much it would cost if I ship a huge box to them... 25 at a time might take a while.

just do multiple boxes of 25, honestly its better then losing a lot of money on trying to ship them all at once. just bring in all the boxes to the post office at once, you don't have to ship them at separate times

Thanks for the tip, Seth. I'll do that. Off to bed now...

See if there is a movie stop in your area, they will take them all in one shot, and no shipping.
